English (LSJ)

A v. μειδάω.

German (Pape)

[Seite 115] att. = μειδάω, w. m. vgl., wie Lob. Phryn. 82; μειδιόων, Il. 7, 212; μειδιῶσα, Ar. Thesm. 513; μειδιάσας, Plat. Phaed. 86 d; πάνυ μειδιάσας τῷ προσώπῳ – ἔφη Euthyd. 275 e; μειδιᾶν, Parm. 130 a; Folgde; übertr., μειδιᾷ πόντος Satyr. 6 (V, 6), u. a. sp. D., μειδιάᾳ ἄρουρα Qu. Sm. 9, 476. Es ist im Attischen allein, statt μειδάω, gebräuchlich, vgl. Lob. Phryn. p. 82.

French (Bailly abrégé)

-ῶ :
f. μειδιάσω, ao. ἐμειδίασα, pf. inus.
rire doucement, sourire.
Étymologie: cf. μειδάω.

Greek Monotonic

μειδιάω: = μειδάω, μόνο στην Επικ. μτχ. μειδιόων, σε Όμηρ.

Russian (Dvoretsky)

μειδιάω: (ᾰ) (fut. μειδιάσω с ᾱ, aor. ἐμειδίασα, part. μειδιάων и μειδιόων) улыбаться Hom., Plat., Arph. etc.

Frisk Etymological English

Grammatical information: v.
Meaning: smile, in Hom. only ptc. -ιόων, -ιόωσα, later also inf. -ιᾶν (Pl.) and indic. forms (e.g. μειδιᾳ̃ Theoc.); aor. μειδ-ιᾶσαι (Sapph., Pl., Plb., Plu.), -ῆσαι (Il.),
Compounds: Also with prefix like ἐπι-, ὑπο-. Also φιλο-(μ)μειδής (from -σμ-; s. below) friendly smiling, esp. of Aphrodite (Il.), as if from μεῖδος γέλως H., but perh. directly from the verb; s. below. On Hes. Th. 200 see Risch, Festgabe Howald, 1947, 76 and Strunk Glotta 38(1960) 70 but also Dornseiff, Ant. Class. 6(1937)247, and Heubeck, Beitr. Namenforschung 16(1965)204-6; s. DELG.
Derivatives: μείδημα n. smiling (Hes.), -ίαμα id. (Luc., Plu.), (ἐπι- )μειδίασις (Plu.), -ίασμα (H.), -ιασμός (Poll., Sch.), τὸ μειδιαστικόν cheerfulness (sch.); μειδ-άμων smiling (Hymn. Is.).
Origin: IE [Indo-European] [967] *smei- laught, smile
Etymology: The relation between these forms is not clear. The present μειδ-ιάω, with the aor. μειδιᾶσαι, is perh. an epic transformation, perh. starting from ptc. pres. (Schwyzer 727, Chantraine Gramm. hom. 1, 359); the aorist μειδ-ῆσαι may contain an η-enlargement. From a verb can also derive φιλο-(μ)μειδής (Schwyzer 513) with μεῖδος as basisc word concluded from it. But the reversed way is also possible: from μεῖδος partly φιλο-(μ)μειδής, partly as denominative μειδῆσαι and (transformed) μειδ-ιάω. -- In any case all forms have a δ-element, which is secondary as we see when we compare the forms of other languages: Skt. smáyate, -ti smile, Toch. B smi-mane, A smi-māṃ ptc. midd. smiling, OCS smějǫ sę, smijati sę laugh, Latv. smeju, smiêt laugh (at) with the Balt. iterative smaidît, with smaĩda laughing (so independent of μειδ-; but see DELG). Whether the Greek δ fist arose in a noun or in a verb, cannot be distinguished, as indicated above (cf. Schwyzer 508 f. and 702 f.). -- More forms, e.g. Lat.mīrus, Engl. smile, in WP. 2, 686f., Pok. 967, W.-Hofmann s. mīrus, Vasmer s. smejúsь.

Middle Liddell

μειδιάω, = μειδάω, Hom.] only in epic part. μειδιόων

Frisk Etymology German

μειδιάω: {meidiáō}
Forms: bei Hom. nur Ptz. -ιόων, -ιόωσα, später auch Inf. -ιᾶν (Pl.) und indik. Formen (z.B. μειδιᾷ Theok.); Aor. μειδιᾶσαι (Sapph., Pl., Plb., Plu. u. a.), -ῆσαι (ep. seit Il.),
Grammar: v.
Meaning: lächeln.
Composita : auch mit Präfix wie ἐπι-, ὑπο-,
Derivative: Davon μείδημα n. das Lächeln (Hes.), -ίαμα ib. (Luk., Plu.), (ἐπι- )μειδίασις (Plu. u. a.), -ίασμα (H.), -ιασμός (Poll., Sch.), τὸ μειδιαστικόν Fröhlichkeit (Sch.); μειδάμων lächelnd (Hymn. Is.). — Außerdem φιλο-(μ)μειδής (aus -σμ-; vgl. unten) mit einem holden Lächeln, hold lächelnd, bes. von Aphrodite (vorw. ep. seit Il.), wie von μεῖδος· γέλως H., aber vielleicht direkt vom Verb; s. unten.
Etymology : Das gegenseitige Verhältnis der obigen Formen ist nicht eindeutig. Das Präsens μειδιάω, wozu der Aor. μειδιᾶσαι, ist wahrscheinlich eine epische Umbildung, vielleicht vom Ptz. Präs. aus (Schwyzer 727, Chantraine Gramm. hom. 1, 359); der Aorist μειδῆσαι kann eine η-Erweiterung enthalten. Aus einem Verb könnte auch φιλο-(μ)μειδής hervorgegangen sein (Schwyzer 513) mit μεῖδος als daraus erschlossenem Grundwort. Auch der umgekehrte Weg ist indessen gangbar: von μεῖδος aus teils φιλο-(μ)μειδής, teils als Denominativum μειδῆσαι und (umgebildet) μειδιάω. — Jedenfalls enthalten alle Formen ein δ-Element, das sich bei einem Vergleich mit andersprachlichen Formen als sekundär herausstellt: aind. smáyate, -ti lächeln, toch. B smi-mane, A smi-māṃ Ptz. Med. lächelnd, aksl. smějǫ , smijati lachen, lett. smeju, smiêt ‘(ver)lachen’ mit dem balt. Iterativum smaidît, wozu smaĩda das Lächeln (von μειδ- also unabhängig). Ob griech. δ zuerst in einem Nomen oder in einem Verb Eingang fand, läßt sich, wie schon oben angedeutet, nicht entscheiden (vgl. Schwyzer 508 f. und 702 f.). — Weitere hierhergehörige Formen, z.B. lat.mīrus, engl. smile, m. Lit. bei WP. 2, 686f., Pok. 967, W.-Hofmann s. mīrus, Vasmer s. smejúsь.
